All the Gobbling King’s Men. NATO’s Special information forces

In the West, they are preparing not only tankers, pilots and mounted infantry, but also anti-Russia journalistic special forces. The website Prigovor.ru has studied the system of education and financing of investigative journalists or “protest special troops

All the Gobbling King’s Men. NATO’s Special information forces

On the scale of history, it’s not more than an instant from the moment when the publisher Joseph Pulitzer announced his will to establish the most prestigious award nowadays - the Pulitzer Price. “I am deeply keen on the progress and promotion of journalism, as I have devoted to this profession the whole my life, considering it a noble profession which has an unrivaled importance for its influence on minds and moral of people”, wrote Joseph Pulitzer.

Yet, in our time, Western media knowingly have distanced themselves away from the Pulitzer standards and moral norms, to which, during dozens of years, journalists from the whole world were looking up to, conceiving as the ultimate truth attitudes of American and European colleagues. The narcosis of the expression “independent journalism” stopped to function as American guns had took the word, and all the journalist king’s men started to produce fake news like “Bucha massacre”.

The carriers of “Atlantic” values have ceased to be ashamed and they are no longer hiding themselves behind the veil of beautiful words. Do you know how, at present, they call journalists in the well-known American international organization “Global Investigative Journalism Network – GIJN”? For them investigative journalists are simply “protest forces in countries with repressive regimes and marginal communities”.

“Nowadays, investigative journalists have actually become “special forces” of the world journalism. In order to achieve success in their work, journalists in the whole world are in need of better training and of most advanced technologies. It’s for this purpose that the Global Investigative Journalism Network was created”, say these good-lookers from the GIJN in the heads of which peacefully get along such notions as “independent journalism” and “special forces”.

Special forces have their commanders, sponsors and curators. Due to their feeling of their own importance, they often let out. Let’s say, the old man Borrell, during a conference devoted to the “fight with disinformation” in Brussels, admitted that the European Union was actively helping Russian foreign agent media outlets, as “they are telling the truth”. “We are actively supporting them. We stand by the Russian independent media, for civil society, for human rights defenders. And what I’m saying, it’s not just rhetoric. I cannot go into detail, but believe me, we supporting them in practical terms. But I’m not going to tell you how, because it will do them bad service”, said quite explicitly Josep Borrell, the head of the European Union foreign policy.

Advocates of “freedom of speech” long ago turned mass media space into “information front”. A systematic, profound work was started with the purpose to plough the Russia media soil and to glow a cast of “independent” mass media, NGOs, and “correct” journalists, and this began not yesterday, and exactly not in connection with the carrying by Russia its Special Military Operation (SMO) in Ukraine.


We would like to remind our readers that as early as twenty years ago Joe Biden, being at that time the president of the U.S. Congressional Committee on Foreign Relations, lobbied through an Act in which the strategy of breeding up loyal to the United States public figures, activists, journalists, various von-governmental organizations was presented in detail.

The agency FLB.ru has closely studied this piece of legislature in the article entitled “20 years ago, congressman Biden lobbied through the “Law on Democracy in Russia”. Already at the beginning of the 2000s, more than 65 000 non-governmental organizations were created on grants from the United States, and more than 40 000 Russian citizens received some sort of training on money of American tax-payers. In the first years after this Act came into force, actually, in 2003, the American government approved the budget amounting to 50 million dollars for development of contacts and for training of Russia citizens.

The journalist guild in Russia was turned into a “contact zoo” where most handshakeable colleagues were being hand-feed. As the result, it turned out that, under the mottos about “freedom of speech”, special forces were being formed from them. Nowadays, they are all on a war footing. 

After Russia began its Special Military Operation in Ukraine, journalists with pro-Western and anti-Russia orientation left the country. According to the tally made by foreign agents themselves from “Project”, after February 25 more than 500 journalists who had been previously feed for a long time thanks to various grants left Russia. Actually, a full battalion of information forces.


“SPECIAL FORCES OF INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM”. REVUE OF RESOURCES AND CAPABILITIES

It’s war time. Combat actions – these are not only tanks, artillery and army brigades. This is also information war, where sometimes a word kills more effectively as rounds. Let’s revue forces and capabilities which have been fostered and put against Russia.

This is evident, which “independent media outlets” Josep Borrell meant in the first place. These are nurtured by “cookies” investigative projects – “Important stories” of Roman Anin* and Olesia Shmagoun* “Project” of Roman Badanin, “The Insider” of Roman Dobrokhotov, “Meduza” of Galina Timchenko, “The Bell” of Elizaveta Osetinskaya, and the Center “Dossier” of Mikhail Khodorkovsky.

From starlets of Roskomnadsor (Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media) it flickers before eyes - all these journalists, unfortunately, turned out to be sheer traitors and collaborationists. For a fee, they work for the enemy fighting against our country by hand of Ukrainian Nazis.

In particularly, we note the “rear service” which, morally and materially, supports these journalistic special forces. The most well-known is the monthly award “Editorial Board”. This award has been financed for already seven years by Boris Zimin*, the son of the founder of the Company “Vympel Communications” (trade mark “Beeline”). Boris Zimin is the main public sponsor of Alexey Navalny and the extremist “Foundation for Fight against Corruption”**. The foreign agent Zimin gives to journalists 10 thousand dollars each month. As a rule, the sum is divided among three best investigative journalists of the month (criterion - the worse about Russia, the better). All have been striving. For instance, “Meduza” has already received this prize 34 times, “The “Project” – 16 times. “Important Stories” – 9 times, “The Bell” – 5 times.

There is an analogue, but an annual award “Profession Journalist” sponsored by the finance swindler Mikhail Khodorkovsky* who has penetrated into politics. His award was launched in 2016, and it has 8 nominations.

Apart from that, we can mention also the work on the flanks of information front – there where an explicit and non-explicit work with the audience is being carried out in order to deliver to it necessary narratives. On such platforms as YouTube**, Instagram**, Facebook** voluble bloggers like Yuri Dud* and Ilya Varlamov process the audience. Under the guide of the motto that they are “for all the good and against all the bad” the same program “vDud” reproduce on the Internet savage stunts of extremists like those of the ex-deputy of the Russian Parliament Ilya Ponomarеv**. 


Here is a joyful scream of a collaborationist on the web. A certain Voropayev: “Everything is OK with the journalistic work abroad! To counter Russian propaganda, they provide now a lot of money. If you are not a complete nub (means: dummy), you will certainly not be left without a work! Personally proven. Really, you will be able to write, and you will become money for that. After evacuation from Mordor, my personal income has increased three times! In euros, and I don’t care a thing about rubles”

A GLOBAL PROTEST SPECIAL NETWORK

In the West, not only Ukrainian pilots, tank operators and missilemen are being trained, as, simultaneously, a large-scale methodical work with regard to teaching Russian journalists by their standards is being carried out – i.e. “training of special protest forces for working in countries with repressive regimes and marginal communities”. To such a conclusion has come the website Prigovor.ru after having analyzed the activities of dozens of Western foundations. Look at what an intensive work is being carried out on training anti-Russian journalistic special forces right now. There are two directions in this work: training and grant support of projects.

In particular, anti-Russian disposed journalists have following subjects: methods and instruments for analysis of big data, methods and instruments of the work with cartographic and geographic data. They are taught how to conduct an investigation using closed sources, as well as methods of intelligence based on open sources (open source intelligence – OSINT). They are trained in ways of searching and getting near to vulnerable information sources, as well as in basics of ethical work under cover, methods of journalistic finance investigations.

GRANT SUPPORT FOR PROJECTS

13) The American Foundation “Motta” has provided a grant in the amount of 100 000 dollars for creation instruments of events falsification during the Special Military Operation. The recipient of this has become the “independent” Global Investigative Journalists Network financed by the same foundation

14) The German government has provided 1 million euros through the “European Journalists in Exile Fund” (JX Fund). The financing is envisaged for support of journalists who came to Europe in connection with their position with regard to the Special Military Operation. Each grant amounting to 50 000 euros will be possible to spend on: transportation of a team, wages, renting of office, creation of an internet-site, travels.

15) “European Endowment for Democracy”** provides money for Russia-speaking media-projects and “independent” mass media aiming at reaching of information “balance” in the Eastern Europe. Programs of the mentioned fund envisaged financing projects, including projects from Russia, in the amount of 4 million rubles for each project. The time for presenting a request for a project is not limited.

16) “American-Russian Foundation for Economic and Legal Development” (USRF) has launched a new grant program. The means will go for support of the agents who have already received help within the framework of this foundation. Assistance envisages providing help for leaving the territory of the Russian Federation. The second aim of the Fund is the support of pro-Western and prop-Ukrainian propagandists in Russia and outside its territories who can present the “right” position about the conflict in Ukraine.

17) Investigative Journalism for Europe (IJ4EU) has provided 1.11 million euros for journalists from Russia and from European countries. Within the framework of this program, journalists from different countries will be obliged to conduct “actual for the European community” investigations into socio-political questions. In February 2022, the commission choose 43 teams for further participation in the program. Among them journalists from more than 40 countries, including from Russia and Byelorussia. Among sponsors the Soros foundation “Open Society” and Euro-Commission were also itemized.

18) The German NGO “MiCT”, supported by Western state agencies and funds, is creating a program for employees of mass media who left Russia in connection with the Special Military Operation. Participants will have a possibility to stay in Berlin for at least three months and will receive monthly about 70 thousand rubles for writing “correct” information about events in Ukraine. The German organization is proud of its cooperation with oppositional media outlets, in particular, it is stated in the description of the program for journalist who went to Europe: “”Among scholars, there are journalists of well-known independent media outlets, from such well-known media outlets as “Dozhd”**, “Ekho of Moscow”*, “Novaya Gazeta”*, “Meduza”**, “Zerkalo”, “Verstka”, “Kholod”, “Insider”**, and “Doksa”.

19) The London foundation of Mikhail Khodorkovsky* “Justice for Journalists” invites mass media and employees to make an application for participation in its annual grant programs for conducting investigations. The Foundation “Justice for Journalists”, its consultative and expert councils, as well as curators, will evaluate all applications which correspond to appropriate criterions of the Foundation. This year, only propositions are being considered with a maximum sum of financing amounting to 80 000 dollars, for each separate grant.

20) The U.S. Embassy in Moscow has announced the start of providing grants for Russians and NGO. Priority will be given to projects oriented at the “development of understanding the freedom of the press”, “raising media literacy” and “promotion of democracy”. For physical persons, a financing is envisaged within the limits of 3.5 million rubles for a project, and for NGOs, financing is limited to 17 million rubles for a project. The period of validity is one year.


It’s a serious “showcase” which gives to understand that Western countries use a very serious approach to questions of education and financial support of separate journalists, as well as media outlets and civil journalist organizations ready to act in accordance with guidelines of the “Washington regional party committee” (Washington obkom), i.e. of bosses in Washington. Germany, United States, Great Britain, Sweden, Czech Republic, Lithuania – all of them are engaged in training of the anti-Russian special forces. 

One can appraise the volume of stipends: “payment to the amount of 1 million rubles for 10 months”, grants for students amounting to about 200 thousand rubles”, “each grant worth 50 000 euros”, “up to 4 million rubles for a project”, “80 000 dollars for each separate grant”, “3.5 million rubles for one project for one physical person, and for NGOs – 17 million rubles for one project”… They don’t begrudge money, and pay to traitors in earnest.

OPERATIVE HEADQUARTERS OF THE INFORMATION WAR

And there are also operative headquarters of the information war. They are coordinating actions of journalists from different countries, long-term planning, accumulation of data bases, creation of a corresponding range of tools and organization of financing channels. Curators from the State Department have found an elegant solution – by creating various “international networks of investigative journalists”. The most well-known and productive are the two of them: “Global Investigative Journalism Network – GIJN) and “Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project – OCCRP).

The global network GIJN is simultaneously a center of coordinating investigations and a training center of the “information special forces”, proposing dozens of different scholarships and grants for investigative journalists.


The whole activity of the GIJN is presented with a sweet sauce of the fight against corruption. Yet, let’s see who is “combatting” corruption together with journalists. On the website of the Global Investigative Journalism Network, in the section “Sponsors” are itemized: Foundation “Open Society” ** of George Soros activities of which were acknowledgedas undesirable on the territory of Russia as early as in 2015, and “OAK Foundation”, which sponsored of the whole cast of foreign agents, including such notorious media outlets as “Meduza”**, “Mediazone”**. “OAK Foundation” was also seen in the field of molestation the youth, as it financed LGBT projects, in particular, the foundation “Sfera” which is already liquidated.

As early as three years ago, the agency FLB.ru wrote about the phony and sham independence of the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP).

(See also the investigation “Watchdogs” of American Democracy”. Who pays and calls the shots of journalistic investigations in Russia and in other countries”)

On the website of the OCCRP in the section “supporters”, among others, we see some sharp-toothed apologists of independent journalism: U.S. State Department, U.S. agency for International Development (USAID), United Kingdom Foreign Commonwealth & Development Office, National Endowment for Democracy**, acknowledged as undesirable on the territory of the Russian Federation, and all the same benefactors and foreign agents – Soros’s Open society foundation and “OAC Foundation”.   


Having looked into the last annual report of the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) for the year 2021, on the page 23 one can see that this organization is so “independent” that there is a separate entry with regard to receiving grants from the government of the United States: in 2021 – 5 192 396 dollars, and in 2020 – 5 008 300 U.S. dollars.

By the way, this Center for Corruption Investigation, on page 5 of its report, mentioned two publications – “Novaya Gazeta” and “Important Stories” (Важные истории)**. Nowadays, journalists of these and other investigative publications, obligingly and joyfully squeaking, have been working for those who want to cancel Russia. 

Boys, you are seeking for yourself a justification in the unbegun “Russia corruption” and in “Putin’s damned regime”, but, actually, there is no justification for you – now you are definitely working abominably against your own people and your own country.


Good price of “independence” of investigators – the headquarters in Maryland and five million dollars a year from the U.S. government plus finance injections from private funds.

WE ARE FEW BUT ROSES

So, on the other side of the front there are at least two battalions of journalists who have been for years fed with Western grants creating “special forces of the world journalism”. On the other side of the line there are dozens of journalistic training schools and programs. On the other side there are dozens of funds and foundations that are generously financing anti-Russia journalistic projects. (Remember: After the evacuation from Mordor, my personal income has increased three times!).

To put it in a nut shell, on the other side of the front line there is a shapely built system of training investigative journalists whose main purpose is to shatter the state and dilution of minds, as well as converting people.

And what do we have? On our side there is militia standing in the middle of nowhere. The militia of Russian investigative journalists against professional special forces.

And the question is not only about the Special Military Operation in Ukraine, information war is more complex, it’s a long battle for minds of whole generations. They, on the other side, are ready for this long match, and they are being systematically trained for that. 

Of course, the situation on our side is not that dispiriting. There are several professional investigative teams in editorials rooms: Russia Today, “Tsargrad”, Life (Andrey Gridasov and Egor Perezhogin), Russian Information Agency “FAN”, “Oktagon” (Taras Podrez), FLB.ru, team of the Telegram channel “Readovka”, “Versiya”, Underside, team of the Telegram channel “Rybar”, man-orchestra and lawyer Ilya Remeslo, Investigative Center of Vasiliy Prozarov… (excuse us, colleagues, whom we have not mentioned, this is yet another proof of our disunity).

All these teams, for a sufficient period of time, have been consistently dealing with journalistic investigations directed at objective covering of events and fight against disinformation.

At the same time, it should be pointed out that the majority of journalists working in investigative genre, are, in fact, self-educated, and they empirically have been collecting tools for their work. Each of them work according their own method. There is no systematic training for the new generation of journalists, no exchange of latest best practices or methodology. However, the information front, in view of its intertwinement with digital formats is very sensitive to innovations. Nowadays, an investigative journalist needs to be informed about the newest technologies and methods of big data processing.

Moreover, it’s worth mentioning a lack of any separate monthly award for investigative journalists. Such an award would allow to motivate and unite hundreds of journalists throughout the country.

The country needs professionally trained investigative journalists who will be systematically dealing with information countermeasures and exposure of disinformation. We must counter the U.S. Department of States’ “special forces of world journalism” with our professionally trained personnel.
